FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION:
Pressure Release Valve (3)
This can be used to reduce or release the pressure in the system. Minimal force is
required to seal the system
Fine Adjustment Vave (4)
The Pressure generated can be finely adjusted by turning the fine adjustment valve
(4) either clockwise or anticlockwise to increase or decrease pressure accordingly.
Pressure / vacuum Selector (5)
Press the selector (5) as indicated on the label to engage the desired mode. Ensure
that the release valve (3) is closed firmly (clockwise motion) prior to pumping.
Knurling Thumb Nut (2) (Over pressure protection)
To adjust the maximum output pressure of the system turns the knurling thumb nuts
(2) to increase or decrease the stroke length so that the pressure is controlled.
4.0 OPERATING PROCEDURE
➢
Connect the master / test instrument using the appropriate adapter and seals to
the pressure port at the end of the flexible hose (6) or directly to the body (10)
using appropriate adaptor
➢
Open the fine adjustment valve (4) in the anticlockwise direction until red mark
appears
➢
Ensure the pressure release valve (3) needle tightened in the clockwise direction.
➢
Pressure / vacuum calibration can be selected by Pressure / vacuum selector (5).
➢
Generate pressure / vacuum by squeezing handles (1) together. Ensure that the
handles are fully squeezed together on each stroke to achieve maximum
pressure / vacuum output.
